In order for a robot to provide service in a real world environment, it has to navigate safely and recognize the surroundings. We have participated in Tsukuba Challenge to develop a robot with robust navigation and accurate object recognition capabilities. To achieve navigation, we have introduced the ROS packages, and the robot was able to navigate without major collisions throughout the challenge. For object recognition, we used both a laser scanner and camera to recognize a person in specific clothing, in real time and with high accuracy. In this paper, we evaluate the accuracy of recognition and discuss how it can be improved.
